Each chapter is devoted to a single sport, looking at such aspects as equipment, training and the anatomy, physiology and psychology of athletes. In each chapter Torrey discusses the injuries most common to that sport. Excellent drawings of anatomical structure accompany each section. In discussions of equipment, he includes pertinent safety information. He also describes the role of computers in sports. The accompanying charts, diagrams and photos aid in understanding the text, and the anecdotes make the book personable and readable. This is a well-documented book, and it can be faulted only in its scant coverage of female athletes."; 9.2 X 6.4 X 1.3 inches; 322 pages. Nº de ref. del artículo: 15663
